PERSONALITY
A deeply Provençal olive oil: an exuberant green-fruity quality, typical of its artichoke and cut-grass aromas; a peppery finish on the palate, which becomes more subdued in the spring after harvest time; and fresh, light and mineral traits, due to extra-special care of the raw materials and complete mastery of the creative process.
